SET extra_float_digits = 3 (or any other SET command) does not create any
connections at all. It's much more likely your application opens a new
connection, executes the SET command on it (so it's in pg_stat_activity)
and then goes to do something else.

If that's not the case, we need much more information. Why do you think
the SET command is creating idle connections?
